How do I uninstall iPhoto and reinstall from the APP Store? I already own it, but it will not open now.

I have the latest version of iPhoto installed, but it will not open now. An earlier error message prompted me to update to the latest version, which I have. How cna I uninstall and reinstall this APP that I aleady own?
Thanks - David

Fixing that does not require reinstalling the iPhoto Application - it requires correct library issues
What exactly happens? What version of iPhoto do you have installed (in teh finder select it in the Applications folder and get info)?
If it iPhoto '11 version 9.5.1 then Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • HT4859 How do I remove old unwanted applications from my app store tracking?  I removed from the phone, but still showing and reinstalling from the App Store screen.

    I'm trying to remove old apps off my phone, and they keep showing up.  How do I get rid of them?

    i was losing temper looking for an answer for this. at the end the trick is that you need to show the side bar then only your library will list the apps menu for you to access & start doing the deletion huhhhhh..
    Itunes > view (menu bar) > show side bar > under library select apps > all apps list either active & deleted on your device will be displayed in tile view > then you start to delete by right clicking> finally empty recycle bin >

  • Aperture was originally installed from the app store, now its asking for a serial number. how do i download the serial number or reinstall from the app store?

    Aperture was originally installed from the app store, now its asking for a serial number. how do i download the serial number or reinstall from the app store?

    The App Store version of Aperture will never ask for a serial number so something got confused on your system. Did you ever have a non App Store version of Aperture installed? Did you download the trial version for some reason?
    You can try moving Aperture from the Application folder to the desktop and then going to the App Store. Log in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase Aperture and you should be able to download it again.

  • How do I remove an old username from the app store when using the update function

    How do I remove an old username from the app store when using the update function.
    I purchased my Mac used.  The former owners username prepopulates when I try to perform the updated function on the app store.  It does not allow me to use a different user name.    I have created my own username and password.  I have even been able to purchase items from the app store, it's just when I use the update function it does populate with my username.  Any help is appreciated.

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

  • HT4910 How do you transfer movies I purchased from the app store from iPad to iPad?

    I've bought another ipad2 and I can't figure out how to transfer my movies I purchased from the app store from one iPad to another iPad. Can anyone help?

    You can either sync with iTunes to transfer them to your iTunes library, then sync them to the new iPad by selecting them on the Movies tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  Or, you can download them directly to your new iPad as a past purchase for free (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519) if permitted by the studio (not all permit this).

  • How can I hide or delete updates from the App Store I am not interested in using?

    How can I hide or delete updates from the App Store I am not interested in using?

    This works for apps you've acquired, but does not work for built-in features.  I am regularly nagged to update Digital Camera RAW Compatibility (currently I'm being nagged about Update 6.03).  I've tried the method described above - the steps are available, but they appear to have no effect.  I think this is perhaps because RAW compatibility is an element of OSX rather than a separate app.  I don't use RAW format with cameras, and have no need for this feature.  Even if I did, I have none of the 13 camera models listed in this update. 
    It is just a nuisance, but if anyone knows how to suppress this I would appreciate instructions. 
    I would also be curious if anyone can explain why on earth Apple would incorporate RAW camera format compatibility into the core of its operating system.  It shakes my confidence in their operating system design.

  • Hacked Message: Your Apple ID was just used to download Podcasts from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID

    So I just got a message from Apple saying
    "Your Apple ID was just used to download Podcasts from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID"
    I am new to Apple products and signed up to the app store about an hour before but have not downloaded any apps yet.
    I also turned on iCloud Drive.
    Neither of these are Podcasts and I do not have any Podcasts on my device.
    The message is a really poor warning, it could for instance list the IP address which would immediately tell me if it was me.
    It could list what type of device it was.
    It could list what Podcast was downloaded.
    But no, just some random message, probably generated by the really bad default iPhone settings that put ease of use before security.
    I have a long complex password that I do not want ot have to change just because Apple generates a stupid message.
    On Google you have a log of all logins and devices, is there something similar with Apple, so I can figure this out?

    I have not down downloaded any podcasts and there are no podcasts in the podcasts app, of course if Apple were to list the podcast that was downloaded, the IP address and the device it might help one dismiss the message.
    I am running the latest v8.1.1 although how the version of my OS related to a message generated by Apple servers is beyond me, unless my device is not authenticating properly so Apple thinks I am someone else but then as I have not downloaded any Podcasts that would not seem to be the issue.
    It does NOT say you downloaded a podcast. First, podcasts are not downloaded from the App Store; they are downloaded from the iTunes store.
    It's very clear to me; the app named  "Podcasts" was downloaded, not a podcast. "Podcasts" is a app provided by Apple for managing and downloading podcasts.

  • Your Apple ID, was just used to download Excalibur: Knights of the King from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.

    I keep receiving :
    Your Apple ID, ********@*******.***, was just used to download xxxxxxxx from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
    You may also be receiving this email if you reset your password since your last purchase.
    If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
    If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go to iforgot.apple.com to change your password, then see Apple ID: Tips for protecting the security of your account for further assistance.

    Anybody have an answer/same problem?
    Thanks !
    <Email Edited By Host>

    I'm having a similar problem.  I had previously (over a year ago) purchased 2 episodes of Law &amp; Order.  Then about 2 months ago, I purchased the 3rd season of Sons of Anarchy.  When I downloaded these episodes to my iPad, about a dozen full seasons of various shows popped up, too.  No money was removed from my iTunes account &amp; theses particular shows aren't in my iTunes library on my desktop.  I've tried every which way to delete them from my ipad, but can't.  I went to the Apple store &amp; they suggested I contact expresslane.apple.com for help.  I submitted my problem, via email Friday, as they asked, but have not received any response.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of these "phantoms?".
